In mathematical logic, structural proof theory is the subdiscipline of proof theory that studies proof calculi that support a notion of analytic proof, a kind of proof whose semantic properties are exposed.When all the theorems of a logic formalised in a structural proof theory have analytic proofs, then the proof theory can be used to demonstrate such things as consistency, provide decision ...

Gentzen's doctoral thesis marked the birth of structural proof theory, as contrasted to the old axiomatic proof theory of Hilbert. A remarkable step ahead in the development of systems of sequent calculus was taken by Oiva Ketonen in his doctoral thesis of 1944. Ketonen, a student of mathematics and philosophy in Helsinki, went to Göttingen in ...

Structural proof theory is a branch of logic that studies the general structure and properties of logical and mathematical proofs. This book is both a concise introduction to the central results and methods of structural proof theory, and a work of research that will be of interest to specialists. The book is designed to be used by students of ...

structural proof theory belongs, with a few exceptions, to what can be described as computational proof theory. Since 1970, a branch of proof theory known as constructive type theory has been developed. A theorem typically states that a certai n claim holds under given assumptions. The basi c idea of type theor y is tha t proof s are function s ...

structural and introduction rules. The sequent calculi of Gentzen and Girard provides the atoms of inference. The computer scientist wishing to use inference generally nds these atoms to be far too tiny and unstructured. Recent work in structural proof theory has been developing a chemistry for inference so that we can engineer a rich set of

The fundamental idea of my proof theory is none other than to describe the activity of our under-standing, to make a protocol of the rules according to which our thinking actually proceeds. ... structural definition that concerns systems and imposes relations between their elements. This approach shaped Dedekind’s mathematical and foundational

Start with a transformed proof: only shallow atomic cuts as up-rule. Consider the topmost cut, and generate the two copies of the proof above the cut (use a=t and a=t): Bottom-up in 1 replace a=R Πno effect if a is in the context or in s;m. Otherwise, x it (left) to paste it for the cut-eliminated proof (right),

Structural proof theory is concerned with the structure of proofs and perspicuous proof calculi for elucidating this structure. This leads to the study of sequent calculi and of natural deduction. Reductive proof theory is the modern version of Hilbert's program: ...

Structural proof theory studies the general structure and properties of mathematical proofs. It was discovered by Gerhard Gentzen (1909–1945) in the first years of the 1930s and presented in his doctoral thesis Untersuchungen iiber das logische Schliessen in 1933.

Structural proof theory investigates the structure and properties of proofs in different formal deductive systems, including axiomatic derivations, natural deduction, and the sequent calculus. Central results in structural proof theory are the normalization theorem for natural deduction, proved here for both intuitionistic and classical logic ...

Structural proof theory was born in two forms, natural deduction and sequent calculus. The former has been the more accessible way to proof theory, used in teaching. The latter, instead, has yielded better to structural proof analysis. For example, the underivability results for intuitionistic predicate logic in Section 4.3 were obtained for ...

re-unite branches of the sequent proof-tree (and this was used already in the propositional proof); I Splitting theorems are common to several different logics and work under the same intuition: method proper of deep inference (for example [12, 14, 19, 1, 4]) I Extends to rst order classical logic (differently from previously shown proof).

This mobility of binders approach, which requires some extension to unification in logic programming [17], is now a popular device for implementing logical frameworks and meta-level reasoning systems, such as lProlog [19],

This study used the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). Data were collected through an online questionnaire using a voluntary sampling technique, and 1,994 responses were obtained and analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The sample criteria were men aged 17–65 years old who had used or were currently using personal care products.
